Bug 1261946

Description of problem:
For an HA Router which does not have any subnets in the external network, Neutron 
sets the IPv6 proc entry[1] on the gateway interface to receive Router Advts from 
external IPv6 router and configure a default route pointing to the LLA of the external IPv6 Router.

Normally for an HA Router in the backup state, Neutron removes Link Local Address (LLA)
from the gateway interface. 

In Kernel version 3.10 (used in platforms like RHEL7/Centos7) when the last IPv6 address is removed from the interface, 
IPv6 is shutdown on the iface and the proc entries corresponding to the iface are deleted (i.e., /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<interface>)
This issue is resolved in the later kernels [2], but the issue exists on platforms with Kernel version 3.10
When IPv6 proc entries are missing and Neutron tries to configure the proc entry we see the following traceback in Neutron.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create an HA Router
2. Create an internal network, subnet and associate the internal subnet to HA router.
3. Create an external network without any subnet.
4. Associate the external network with the HA Router. 
5. Do not configure "ipv6_gateway" in neutron l3_agent.ini configuration.

Actual results:
Traceback seen in Neutron l3-agent logs.

Expected results:
Neutron should not trace out.
